San Antonio Express, Sunday Morning, June 11, 1922. Many of those she had counted among her friends in the San Antonio of yesterday, and those who knew her in the later day, came yesterday to pay their last tribute to Mrs. Mary Tyner Keeran, widow of J.N. Keeran, one of the pioneer stockmen of the Southwest. Mrs. Keenan's death occurred Thursday afternoon at the country home of her daughter, Mrs. T.A. Coleman, at Encinal.
The funeral took place yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock from the Coleman residence, 1107 Main Avenue. The service of the Episcopal Church was read at both the residence and grave, Bishop J.S. Johnston, retired, officiating. Mrs. Keeran was one of his early parishioners, and she was ever a devout member of the Episcopal Church.
There were many beautiful offerings of the choicest flowers of the of the springtime.
. . .
As a loving tribute, from one who was in position to judge, the passing of this beautiful spirit from our midst is an event fraught with untold sorrow to her vast number of friends. Mary Tyner Keeran fell asleep Thursday, June 8, at 2:30 o'clock p.m. She was a personage whose sense of power came from within rather than from without, and always teaching kindness with wisdom by her example in life; never failing to perform a deed of sympathy in a most generous way, that enriched her pure soul.
Surely, "by their fruits ye shall know them," and in her own quiet and refined manner her light shone in hidden places which the world knew not. Sorrow, when it comes, strikes plebian and aristocrat alike. For those who weep and suffer there is no difference of rank -- a strong bond of human sympathy unites them.
When all that was once dear lies withered like the autumn leaf, 'tis then that we feel the deficit in our soul of souls. After lingering, the Father of Light called her. Cheerfully she obeyed the summons. Often we spake of the "going out of life." She regarded it simply as an event among God's plans, and the Christian that she was gave her great faith in the belief that this life was only the beginning but in the hereafter there would be no separation. The blessed companionship of such a woman does not end, but is a beautiful afterglow through life.
